We want to take time to congratulate the JH Wrestling program, Coach Smiddy and Coach Dees on their league title Friday night @ CNE! The New Richmond wrestling winning tradition starts at the youth level/birth and is advanced through the JH to the high school. It takes all the coaches and parents at every level to achieve success on the mat, thank you for all your dedication!
The Varsity Lions pounded out another SBAAC title last night. If you haven't been counting that is three in a row! The Lions started strong and finished strong with five champs, four second place finishers, a third and two fourth place finishers! It took fourteen wrestlers, hard work, dedication and the undying support of our fans to bring home the title.
Congratulations to our five league champs: Brody Hooks, Austin Skaggs, Kyle Weeks, James White and JR Forsee. Our four second place finishers: Cody Gabelman, Robbie Lemar, Clay Loadman and Nathan Dixon. Third place finisher Tyler Loyd and our two fourth place finishers: AJ Rostetter and Luke Hoskins. Thanks to the contributions of Chris Klinker and Ryle Beckerich we achieved our third title in a row! Great job men!
Next week we start the sectional tournament @ Western Brown Friday & Saturday. The Lions will be in search of their third sectional title in a row and looking to advance fourteen wrestlers to the district tournament. WE ARE NR!!
